Short Work 2: Work Harder

MORE HEAVILY SONG INSPIRED WORK THIS TIME IT'S MUMFORD AND SONS TIME TO READY YOUR READING EYE'S FOLKS

Shame runs through Kylo Ren's being as water flows through a waterfall. He could never tell Snoke how close he came to letting the scavenger ruin his life. Everything he had worked towards building. As she parted from him. He went left and she went right. On the blizzard stormy night. He can't help but wonder if she had ever seen snow before. 

They next time they meet it's with the clashes of sabers. Her anger flows in everything she is. Everything she does. She's a vicious little thing, and her size betrays her strength. He leaves with another scar and a limp in his leg. 

Time had passed since they last saw each other enough to know where they would end up. The force would lead them to where they needed to be. Kylo had had enough, there had been enough time to realize that he had done wrong. That he was wrong, that he could change and be different. Promises made and rules set. She was young and he was not old. Their tale had not come to an end though, before it was torn apart and she was gone. Taken by an great evil.

Lightsabers slashed as he made his way through the stronghold, vicious strikes always landing their mark. He slowly makes his way to where he can feel her, so very alive and well. His relief at finding her alive is great enough that it almost blindsides him to the next attacker. He completely destroys anything in his path. Old knights, generals, and captains fall at his feet one by one as he makes his way to Snoke's chamber. The old ghost is nothing frightening now, he has no power over Kylo anymore. He sets her free and he strikes the final blow. 

As Rey looks into his eyes she gapes at their yellow color as he promises her that he'll get her home safe.
